Audi A3 Xenon headlights installation

[@CliffHuxtableSweater]

Just convinced me to go head and pay my mechanic to change my bulb

[@dannyrocket77]

I changed mine and I should of let the mechanic do it. It took forever and so many cuss words. I never have any of the right tools

[@mshomefire]

After the first screw the audi dealer got the JOB.

[@dannyrocket77]

Didn't have the right tool @ 5:25 but was 3/4 of the way disassembling the bumper and it was a sunday so I couldn't go to Autozone...I ended up spending an hour with a pair of long pliers through the wheel well 1/8 turns at a time...

[@dannyrocket77]

@8:28 is the only screw you need to get to that the bumper cover is hiding...partial bumper cover removal will expose this...

[@jennadollface]

you dont have to take bumper off do you to change a xenon bulb , think headlight will come out without bumper coming off x

[@martyn334]

+janna graham was thinking it looked like a bloody lot of work just to change the units over.. lol

[@blazedani]

+janna graham To replace a Xenon bulb on the Audi A3 you do not have to remove the bumper. To install new headlights you must take off the bumper in order to replace the headlights. Some of the bolts are under the bumper & you can't remove them without removing first

[@jennadollface]

+Martyn Day (Smir) bumper comes off to change units but not just a xenon bulb which I've just changed on mine trick thing to do but I managed after 20'mins

[@francescodavidenapolitano8844]

janna graham hello, what about the fog lights, on a 8p model? And can I change the bulb with and led bulb, thx

[@adamgrabbert9361]

Is this the same process for removing the headlight on a 3.2 a3?

[@EB-mx1st]

Appreciate its been along time since posting the video. I've got halogen bulb and want to do the same thing except going to use bi xenons. Isit still plug and play ?

[@silvakko]

I only need to buy the headligths and DS2 bulbs or I need to buy a full xenon kit to install in the new headlights? Thank you in advance

[@tof3275]

Hi thereTWO questions1) What was the "black cable tie" on the aluminium cross-member supporting ?2) Why did you unscrew all of under tray the drivers side, when that kind of access was not needed ?

[@enhanceduk4642]

You can do it by putting your hand through the wheel trim

[@zhoaibraja2992]

If ordered to the UK.. Is the light beam pattern suited for the UK roads.. I.e: driving on left side of the road

[@welldonelighting8438]

We do not sell the RHD for the UK market anymore since there is very little demand for it. Currently the headlights are only LHD for the European market

[@monxstiglitz08]

Is that a stock bumper and grille? Why is it different from other Audi A3?

[@grilledcookie6259]

Pre-facelift that came in 2005

[@monxstiglitz08]

@@grilledcookie6259 I have a 2005 Audi A3 8P 3 doors but it's not like that dual/split grille. Just one whole grille. I think dual/split grille looks better IMO :)

[@grilledcookie6259]

@@monxstiglitz08 A3 8p 2004 2.0 TDI S-line here with split grill:) Mine came with the xenons too

[@mcmadafranker]

I’ve put OEM xenon headlight units (from UK) in my 06’ A3 8P, do you know if there’s a switch for the light image from RHD to LHD?

[@bajramlusha9584]

Where can i buy these headlights???

[@Senchooo]

We can't replace headlight without removing front bumper?

[@gtxc1995]

Senad no

[@dannyrocket77]

Halfway take it off to expose 1 screw three all together.

[@lesangdelaveine7193]

On doit pas changé le câblage normalement en installant des xénon?

[@welldonelighting8438]

Nabil Hadjadj Non. n'est pas nécessaire. 100% Plug & Play

[@azdynemdahoma1908]

Non

[@jeremygermany]

donc si je comprend bien il fait bi xenon et est en plug and play donc il suffirait juste de brancher la connectique normale sans ballast??

[@welldonelighting8438]

jeremy presence Phares fourni avec ampoules et ballast. Tout 100% Plug & Play

[@azdynemdahoma1908]

Exact

[@androiddeveloper6947]

Bonjour, Pouvez-vous me confirmer que si ont n'achète est-ce que les deux phares sont fourni dans le contenue ou c'est un phare merci de votre réponse 😏

[@jano344]

Envíos a America del sur?

[@sofianes2186]

Salut, Est ce que cest des xenons adaptatifs (qui tourne automatiquement) ?

[@seanmolinari1330]

Come farsi sequestrare il libretto? Lo stai facendo nel modo giusto.

[@redemptionx2918]

Does anyone know if it possible to buy just the glass? If so where?

[@albaida4748]

bjr pr l arriere cest aussi facile que l avant sans modif de cablage?

[@hadislian6897]

I hawe a question so if you change normal headlight with xenon im interesting for that if they have same connectors??

[@welldonelighting8438]

If you buy the Plug & Play Xenon headlight then YES. Same connector, and no need to setup with VAGCOM.

[@hadislian6897]

ok im from slovenia and im interesting for that where can i buy these plug and play xenon headlights?

[@DROPUQIK]

didn't know that you had to lift a car 30 feet in the air to change headlights

[@umrmoh]

HAHA

[@aledmorris8398]

Michael Abdel it's obvious why he has done it. it's to make the job easier to pull the screws out on the bottom of the bumper

[@welldonelighting8438]

I did it because I can. It Takes only a couple of minutes with the lift. It's easier to work, record the video & show every single part removed with detail. There is also no need to make a video tutorial to replace the headlights, but we do it to help anyone with doubts.

[@richiej4710]

Michael Abdel Why would he lie on a concrete floor when hes got a ramp?....durr

[@AdmirWudisban]

Did you have previously xenon installed? Do these lights come with motor, D2S bulbs, Balasts and all in lights? and you get no canbus error on screen?

[@welldonelighting8438]

No. The car came with halogen headlights. Our Xenon headlights are 100% Plug & Play. Yes. They come with D2S bulbs & ballasts. No canbus error if you use our headlights. We ship them ready to be installed. If you use other headlights you will get a error in the dashboard & lights will flicker.

[@lewyswhite8325]

So these headlights say 2003-2009 on your website and for RHD. My A3 is a 2009 (facelift 2009-2012) with halogen and DRLs, will these work for me? If so how will the DRL work? Thanks

[@welldonelighting8438]

Sorry Lewys White, no RHD for Facelift model 2010-2013. RHD is only available for 2003-2009.

[@welldonelighting8438]

No canbus error. This are Plug & Play. Comes with motor, D2S bulbs & ballasts. Previously they were using HALOGEN. We updated to XENON.

[@yayayp6099]

Do the motors of these xenon headlights still operate using a wheel under the steering wheel (manually)?

[@michtalktv-you-tube2018]

Ist klar bei 6:46 einfach nen cutt gemacht das mann nicht den fehler sieht weil mann muss die zuerst anlernen weil halogen haben einen kaltstrom und das passt noch nicht zusammen und radio ausgemacht das man ja nicht die fehlermeldung sieht also nicht Plug Play es muss schon noch was gemacht werden !!

[@gtxc1995]

michtalktv -YOU -TUBE wie lern ich die dinger an

[@86lanzo]

This is crazy...the taillights are super easy to replace...but you have to take off the front bumper to change the headlights...

[@alejandrorubio8941]

Cuánto tiempo te llevo en total???

[@BarkerResearch]

In the UK HID headlights have to be self levelling, so this would fail an MOT test.

[@JaseCJay]

I noticed there was no cycle of the adaptive headlights.. spose it could be set to disabled..

[@020matrix]

nice video..but taking off the wheels is only 3 min extra time and will work al lot nicer.

[@xXScOrPiONXx11]

Du hast das Kalibrieren vergessen, somit hast du einen Fehlercode im Fehlerspeicher!

[@belevskidarko]

Nice video 👌👍

[@fattonvaksi8960]

How much Euro did you buy?

[@DaLoscha]

song at 5:50 ?

[@chelito8676]

Quelle couleur pour les xénons 4300k,5000k ou 6000k ?

[@blazedani]

4300k ou 6000k. Vous pouvez choisir. Mais par défaut, nous utilisons 6000k.

[@azdynemdahoma1908]

6000k

[@Shpanders]

this the hardest way

[@WelshDave76]

UK law requires HID to have a lense or an outer wiper I believe.. Had a car fail once due to just swapping in a HID kit.. All due to light bleed and less focus.

[@koba368]

Beautiful

[@powerspeedutube]

Don't usually criticise video but ifs not helpful at all.Alll it shows is how to remove bumper and headlights. ..hence why so many questions in the comments

[@josipbrgles3721]

So its that easy? I just need to buy xenon headlights and just replace it?

[@leticiamelo4832]

amo esse carro pena que eles não fabricam mais e também é caro amo de coração para mim é o carro mais lindo do mundo o meu sonho desfila na praia com o Audi os modelo novos são feios

[@carloslopezmedina17]

Where could i buy this xenon for mi audi that is the same of this?

[@welldonelighting8438]

You have the link in the description. Carlos, tienes el link a la pagina web en la descripcion del video.

[@yustexx]

una pena que en españa sea completamente ilegal, a no ser que homologues y tenga lava-faros.

[@maly13021]

Przecież to nie zgodne z przepisami Wiocha.pl z tymi lampami Szkoda auta

[@rebeccakenyon1772]

useless i does not show how to remove the old bulb which is the most difficult part

[@blazedani]

The headlights comes with the bulbs already installed. This is a installation video for a Plug & Play headlight. Not sure what is your case, but it has nothing to see with this video.
